WayStone Personal Support Services
At WayStone, we know that everyone needs help sometimes. Some people need just a little extra support to stay safe, comfortable, and active in their own homes and communities.
That’s what Personal Support Services are all about — providing basic, flexible assistance so individuals can live independently while having the reassurance that help is there when they need it.
What Are Personal Support Services?
Personal Support provides non-medical assistance, supervision, and help with daily activities. It’s a flexible service that can look different for each person, depending on their needs and goals.
Personal Support may include:
- Help around the home – light cleaning, laundry, organization
- Meal preparation support – planning, cooking, safe food storage
- Safety monitoring & reminders – medication reminders, home safety checks
- Community access – support with errands, appointments, or social activities
- Companionship & emotional support – preventing isolation, offering encouragement
- Supervision – ensuring individuals are safe in their environment
Who Can Benefit?
Personal Support Services are for people who:
- Need help staying safe and independent in their homes
- Do not require full-time or intensive support
- Want flexible help with daily living and community access
- May benefit from companionship, reassurance, or supervision
